Overall great hotel , needs a few updates

ByDallasTXBiztraveler

March 29, 2015

I enjoyed my stay at the Crowne Plaza, and I found the staff to be friendly , welcoming and helpful. However , when I tried to find my way to the hotel fitness center, I was lead down a series of back hallways that dead-ended to an elevator which did not work. There was a taped sign that indicated which level to press once inside the elevator , but the elevator would not change floors. Frustrated, I took the stairs, but still was unclear where I was going because there was no signage. I did tell one of the front desk staff who seemed to not be aware of the issue.

Great Lunch menu in Restaurant

ByAbe 50

March 13, 2015

Sevice was good, ambiance was acceptable. Food in the restaurant was delicious, bar food was not very good and Bar Lounge was very loud.Bedsheets were very uncomfortable. The bedsheets material felt like nylon or paper and definitely not the soft cotton I am used to in other big Brand 5-Star Hotels. I could not get good nights rest.

Dear Abe 50,
Thank you so much for taking your time to fill out an online review regards to your recent stay with us at Crowne Plaza downtown. I am glad to hear that you found our staff and restaurant up to your liking. However, I do want to give you my sincerest apologizes regards to bed sheets being very uncomfortable. I will let the head housekeeping department know about this issue so we can avoid in this future. We would love to see you back soon rather its for business or leisure.
Thank you once again and have a wonderful week.
